and then william johnson, the black correspondent for the pine and palm who fights as an independent soldier in the first battle of bull run in manassas which you read. how many of you remember what johnson says? here's part of it. he's describing the confederacy's victory. at first manassas. he says -- among other things, he says, i was not alone the white man's victory for it was won by slaves. yes, the confederates had three regiments of blacks in the field and they maneuvered like veterans and beat the union men back. this is not guessing, but it's a fact. it has angered our men, and they say there must be retaliation. there's much talk in high places and by leading men of a call being made of the blacks of the north to enter the army against the southern slaves and by opposing freedom. now, in addition to which this letter occurs, the editor says there's no objective evidence the blacks fought for the confederacy. it is the most controversial topic of the civil war. let me just briefly summarize the controversy then i'm interested in your thoughts on william johnson. the controv

william johnson, the black man whose article you read, that was a black emigration magazine. here's lincoln. you and we are different races. broader differences than exist between almost any other two races. your very presence in the country is the cause of the war. which is a weird inversion. even though men on both sides do not care for you one way or another, it's better we both be separated. now, douglass' response to this is just, actually douglass responds to this and says that linkcoln is a retiveesta americancist. some scholars have argued lincoln gives this public address to blacks at the white houscausehe wants to pave e wa for his emcipation proclamation. he's written it. he is waiting for a victory in order to make it public. he is -- lincoln is truly brilliant in engaging public opinion. he never wants to be more than a step ahead of it. and he's also uncertain about when and even if in mid '62 he should follow the lead of the congress and issue an emancipation proclamation. and you read a few pieces about lincoln's religious views. here's his response to horace

it was also to kill vice president andrew johnson, the secretary of state william seward, and ulysses s. grant, the commander of the armies. these acts were all to occur on one day, april 14, 1865, good friday. these men and this woman wanted to decapitate our government, to create panic and fear, to spread terror among our citizens. just after we thought the war was over, just after robert e. lee had surrendered, this long and deadly and miserable war was finally over so the good and decent people of this country thought. but there were people like john wilkes booth and mary surratt and their co-conspirators who are confederate sympathizers and former slave owners. people like mary's son, john jr., who in march of 1865 along with two other conspirators, david herald and john atzerodt, brought weapons to the home of mary surratt in surrattsville. and they hid them there a month before the assassination. people like lewis powell who went by the name of reverend wood or lewis payne, who was passed along with david herald to kill secretary of state william seward. and they came pretty cl

remember, johnson & johnson's former ceo william weldon did damage to this company, which is why i had to put him on a wall of shame. jnj used to be a phenomenal business. in fact, jnj was my number one recommendation for all the years i worked at the goldman sachs. over the last decade, the stocks up just 32% with reinvested dividends. i want you to go back 20 years. guess what you get, 690% return. jnj, band-aids, up 4,805% from 1982, through a couple of bear markets. yeah, jnj is the definition of blue chip that was poorly run, especially the mcneill labs consumer biz. mcneill is located in my hometown, biggest employer. we all knew it was the single best company on earth. everybody wanted to work there. it was loyalty. i lived a mile from mr. mcneill. i never thought jnj would do this to his great company. now perrigo makes knockoff versions of mcneill's over-the-counter products. nobody wants to talk about it. maybe it's because i'm from the division. you know what i mean. i'm talking about reputational damage. you don't really realize how much a new ceo looking at things with a f

killed the president or what if they had succeeded in killing vice president andrew johnson and the secretary of state william seward as well? what if lincoln had directed the reconstruction of the south and what if mary surrat, the woman that owned the boards house where the assassination conspirators met had been granted a civilian trial and was allowed to testify in her own defense? mary surratt was found guilty by a military tribunal in 1865 and hanged, becoming the first woman in u.s. history to be executed by the federal government. would the outcome have been different if she had been allowed to testify in her own defense? would she have lived to a ripe old age if the restrictive rules of evidence of a military tribunal were replaced with the proceedings of a civilian trial? would mary rratt's fate have been different if she had the top defense attorneys of her day defending rather than a young and inexperienced attorney? we will never know, of course, but tonight's retrial of mary surratt promises to be a great, entertaining journey to the land of "what if." now i would like to introduce my colleague,
